Testimony in text

Sharing our faith is important. That's the only way the gospel is really spread, in fact. And oftentimes, a personal faith testimony is worth 100 regular sermons, because it connects people with real stories of faith.

So I was glad to see that Amy Forbus, a friend and fellow Methoblogger, recently shared her testimony about "Why I am a United Methodist" in the United Methodist Reporter. You can read her story here.

Amy is a good example of how ministry is not just limited to clergy serving in local churches. Her work with UMR Communications is an important aspect of our connectional church. I'm glad she's a Gen-X'er out there, showing the world that our generation thinks the United Methodist Church is a vital place to be a part of the body of Christ.

Oh, and you can read her blog here. Dogblogger power, activate!
